[@rolling.reggie]

One year I will go to PAXU! have so much fun and enjoy meeting your amazing community members

[@DanaParedes]

Got to play Pirates of the High Teas at Rincon in Tucson about a week ago. It was a very cute light weight game. Emily Vincent said Kickstarter planned for March. Propolis sounds right up my alley. Ooooh My Shelfie Dice is going on my list!

[@sierra391]

Going to PAXU this year for the first time! I plan on attending the meeting up with my plus one. We can’t wait to meet everyone! Thanks❤

[@FostertheMeeple]

Wooo!!

[@chriscouchgames]

Thank yall for featuring Holiday Hills!! 😊 can’t wait to meet at PAX and show you the game. Also, SO many amazing games on this list! Fromage, My Shelfie Dice, and others are also on my list if I can swing the time to pick them up 😅. Much love from Memphis!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Looking forward to chatting! Safe travels!

[@HeyImBode]

I got to try molly house on TTS recently, it was so good. I can't wait to play it in person or just replay it. I thought the game was going to get an interesting story telling range, and it then exceeded that range on the very first play. Truly wonderful game

[@FostertheMeeple]

We’re so excited for it

[@LordoftheBoard]

Yall are the sweetest. Thank you guys 😭 can’t wait to see you!

[@FostertheMeeple]

See you soon sexy boi

[@stefkortchak3012]

Marked that I may be there, since I haven’t received my enforcer schedule and am not sure that I can make that specific time. But super excited to possibly run into y’all during the con!

[@JonTripp115]

The intro reminded me of this week's WWDITS. I just imagine Jamie-as-Laszlo, "Where did you get that sweated shirt!? What a remarkable garment! I must have it!" 🤣 See you in *9 days* OMG

[@gurnblanston2848]

I'm sad that we're missing PaxU this year, but I hope you both have a blast! I'm also very excited for Lairs (backed it), Flip 7 (bought it as a stocking stuffer), and of course any new Unmatched. I got to playtest the Witcher sets; they're going to be awesome!

[@shawntrewartha]

This video gave me soo much PAX fomo! I hope everyone has an amazing time:)

[@Ian-R-Wilz]

My wife and I purchase the same hoodie in different colors when we travel places just for the plane ride home, but a a few years ago we had a funny coincidence. I was going up to take her to lunch and run errands in the town she works in. She got up and got dressed and went to work before I was out of bed. When I got ready I went to grab one of the hoodies we got when we were in London and then at the last second decided to choose the other one. and it ended up being the one that she chose for the day as well. I wish I could afford to go to PaxU to meet you guys and play games in person and not just on BGA. Lairs looks so good. KTBG hits for us as well. I've never heard of the Silver Games but I'm intrigued by the look of them.

[@simonairey8982]

Some fun looking games. As always your passion and excitement gets me interested in games that weren't on my radar. I already have a big backlog and am looking at some older games that are on sale. I guess I will just have to add a few more to the list, KAY!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Haha we apologize to your wallet!

[@huffpuffduck]

Hi! This is my first time going to PAX U and though I won’t be able to go to the meetup as I am enforcing, this seems like a good group!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Hope you have a blast! Say hi if you see us!

[@bryanscollick8305]

Hopefully we will meet up on Friday! Looking forward to it, have our badges and ready to go!

[@TabletopTurtle]

This will be our first convention and it's looking to be an awesome one!

[@FostertheMeeple]

We hope you have a blast!

[@chriskoppen4613]

Ive got you guys on my schedule and Im hoping to come to the Meet Up!

[@TabletopExpress]

We had Christopher Westmaas on for an interview and it has me even more hyped to try and demo Lairs at PAXU.

[@EveryMunday]

Big fans of the channel! Going to PAXU! My husband and I are I’ll try to drop by the meet up! I wanna show Jamie my Gaming Advent Calendar envelopes! 😂

[@FostertheMeeple]

Awesome!! We look forward to meeting you!

[@niralipatel8581]

So excited for Pax! Planning on joining if it's not too late 😊

[@neopet84]

Have a great time, nice set of games. Excited for Clank Legacy 2. Can't wait to get my copy, but looking forward to see more pictures of it. Hehe, don't they know us Nova Scotians are very friendly.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Right?!

[@madisonvanorden9486]

Crafting the Cosmos caught my eye! The cover alone looks unreal ♡

[@FostertheMeeple]

Agreed!!!

[@jamessmith1274]

I backed the three music games and super excited!

[@oliviagabbay]

Cool list! My wife and I will be there Saturday!

[@questforchips]

You two are great. Thanks for the vid and hope you have fun at Pax.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks so much!

[@AeronwyD]

I've only gotten to play Everdell Duo solo (yes, I recognize the irony) but it's a lot of fun! Probably even better playing with a partner. :) Hope you and everyone going to PaxU has a great time!

[@MadMark118]

I play tested both Shuffle 'n Swing and Bebop. Both are excellent, but if I had to pick one, it would be Bebop. Also, one of my favorite covers in years . Finally, I would say it's more tile placement, not worker placement, the dice just randomize the instruments. I hope you get to play and enjoy both.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks for the info!!

[@CandicePaulsen]

My husband and I will be there tomorrow!! So excited

[@FostertheMeeple]

Woohoo!!

[@shannonpepitone4920]

Oh, I will be finding and saying hi 😂 see you there!

[@FostertheMeeple]

We always bump into eachother at some point!! Haha

[@quinncallahan]

see you there! Philly represent!

[@ryanbanwart5547]

I plan on coming plus 1! 😊🎉

[@SusakuFirePhoenix]

My most anticipated game is Video Game Champion. When I read upon the game and seen game play of it. It made remember my childhood when I used to rent games back in the day lol

[@FostertheMeeple]

We got to play that at bggcon!! Loved the theme and the gameplay was great.

[@ourfamilytogether]

As someone who’s owned it for over a year (and has the second most plays recorded on BGG!), it definitely has that nostalgia vibe. I always teach it using the real names of the actions and putting all of the theme into it. Most people have enjoyed it!

[@SusakuFirePhoenix]

@FostertheMeeple Good to hear. I'm looking forward to it when it comes to retail where I'm at!

[@SusakuFirePhoenix]

@ourfamilytogether I should try your way on teaching the game. It might help me be more confident how the game is played, have fun teaching it instead of just sake of teaching it for them to know the steps 🤔

[@paulsalomon27]

I developed Watches and Clocks, and I think it's a REALLY neat game. Lots of unique stuff.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Awesome!!! Hoping we get a chance to grab a copy

[@lonniestewart8428]

Is it still coming with the Elf Creek Games situation? I was really looking forward to it, but understand if it has to go to a different publisher at this point. Not sure if that’s even possible, but I’m pretty bummed by the possibility that Elf Creek is no more.

[@FostertheMeeple]

@@lonniestewart8428 again. This is not the place for this type of conversation. If you want to address this, head over to elf creek support or the KS page.

[@paulsalomon27]

@@lonniestewart8428I don’t know for sure either way.

[@lonniestewart8428]

@@paulsalomon27 Thanks for the response. I was simply curious. I appreciate your designs and hope to see it come to fruition.

[@noizeemama3697]

The Bitewings Jazz set was a Kickstarter project. I backed it. No clue when we are getting them. The three are Cat Blues The Big Gig, Shuffle and Swing, Bebop Shuffle.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Love that!! So cool

[@pamd9834]

Then there’s watches clocks and hickory docks… I need to check the preview list. And you keep showing more and more good ones. I can’t comment on them all.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Haha never a good sign for the ol wallet

[@matthewjr6239]

hope to see you there you guys seem chill af

[@sethwinslow]

I’ll be there, very excited!

[@tabletalkreviews]

Sadly I'll be running games of Galaxy Trucker during the meetup time.

[@5strokeBrain]

I'll see you there! Bringing my Teen daughter and a few of her friend. I'm going to be BROKE!

[@WalkingDadJoke]

Ooh, I got a promotional copy of Flip 7 at Gencon but haven't broken it out yet, sounds like I might need to rectify that.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Yes! Get a big group and have at it!

[@pamd9834]

Ooo propolis looks great

[@ChristinaHeber-f6b]

lol you guys are so cute with the matching even if it isn’t intentional!

[@FostertheMeeple]

I think Jamie is intentionally doing it. I am gathering evidence

[@jgutkind]

Coming to your meet up at Pax Unplugged. Any chance your going to have any Foster the Meeple merchandise ❤for sale ?

[@FostertheMeeple]

No merch but we will have some goodies!

[@chadicusroboticus3115]

Classic Jeff - comes to the video shoot wearing exactly what Jamie is already wearing.

[@FostertheMeeple]

💤

[@jamessmith1274]

Not to be negative at all just curious. I am kind of shocked the elf creek games will be there for the dickory dock one. Which looks incredible! I just hope and pray when the Kickstarter does fulfill for the dark road that it is them making it. They are by far such a wonderful company and quality mixed with art work it through the roof. Hoping for good thoughts!

[@lonniestewart8428]

Completely agree. I’m bummed if their kickstarters don’t deliver, but not strictly because I’m out money. Rather, I’m sad because every one of their games have such good art, components, and interesting gameplay. I don’t want their company to fail.

[@jamessmith1274]

@@lonniestewart8428 Amen! I completely agree!!

[@FostertheMeeple]

It’s not really our business to talk about this. It’s a game we saw on the list, and we are interested in seeing. Any musings about their kickstarters or operations can be taken to their KS page or company support channels, this really isn’t the place for it

[@jamessmith1274]

@@FostertheMeeple I understand.

[@jamessmith1274]

They make incredible games!

[@ClementiasQuests]

So excited 🎉this is my first one.

[@ClementiasQuests]

Back to say that I just added your meetup to my PAXUnplugged app schedule

[@deevolpe3941]

I marked that I will be there in the discord, of course, Nancy needs to be counted too since she doesn't do discord (or any social media really).

[@FostertheMeeple]

Make sure you checked the emoji that is for the “bringing someone with me”

[@malvinafis6907]

One day I'll be coming to PAXU.... Maybe.... I hope you all enjoy your time.

[@FostertheMeeple]

We look forward to the day!

[@malvinafis6907]

@FostertheMeeple or one day you come to Essen? Or both?

[@FostertheMeeple]

@ someday I’m sure!

[@hobbyholic42]

Unfortunately, I am volunteering for Wise Wizard and unable to come to meet you guys. I hope you have a great con!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks so much!! If you see us say hi!!

[@kevinbertram4828]

I wish I was going to be at PAX-U so I could say hello!

[@FostertheMeeple]

We will see you soon enough though!!

[@AOCuteyPi]

A friend of mine was supposed to demo for Elf Creek, but they reached out to him to cancel because they said they're no longer going to be attending 😩

[@FostertheMeeple]

Dang! That sucks

[@adamfuntime2924]

Is there going to be a villainous tornamant this year?

[@FostertheMeeple]

Yes there is!! (But likely not until the new year now, so. TECHNICALLY not this year.) but it’s coming

[@ChrisT0404]

5 people (which includes myself) will be attending! See you guys there!

[@FostertheMeeple]

Yaaaay

[@shannonsweeley237]

Dying laughing only 5 seconds in.

[@Siepie74]

It would be fun to meet you one day, but it's a bit far from Europe to a convention over there.

[@FostertheMeeple]

Maybe we will make it to a con over there some day!

[@jjapplejack1975]

Where is matching hat, in different colour! You’re such a cute looking couple…

[@hecatesson]

I am surprised to hear of Watches and Clocks of Dickory Docks by Elf Creek Games mentioned due to their current situation. I know they currently have a Kickstarter out that nobody has heard any updates about as well. Its sad to see a company like Elf Creek Games going through this when they have such good games. Hopefully, something positive will come of this for the company, because this game looks phenomenal.

[@FostertheMeeple]

I mean, it’s a game we want to check out at pax. There’s really nothing more to it than that.

[@landunderwave9850]

My 9yo: We'll never meet them; they live in another country. Me: They go to board game cons. My 6yo: They go to Gen Con. Mommy, can we go to Gen Con?

[@FostertheMeeple]

Haha love that! Unfortunately I think this year was our last gencon. But we go to plenty of others!!

[@jmsz6131]

I know it’s late but I would like to join you at pax

[@dunny4106]

Played inferno at bgg con. Thematically amazing game, rule book isn’t the best. Seemed longer than it needed to be. worth the play but not sure it’s worth adding to collection

[@FostertheMeeple]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@annecurrier2955]

Your sweater has thumb holes 😱 please tell me where I can get one😊🩷

It’s an old gymshark sweater, not sure they still make them that way!
